CollaborateMD to Introduce Central Business Intelligence Feature to Cloud Software on January 14
New CBI Feature Gives Medical Practices and Billing Services Total Control Over Reporting Creation and Customization

ORLANDO, Fla., Jan. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- CollaborateMD (CMD), a leading provider of easy and affordable cloud Medical Billing Software and Practice Management Software announced today the release date of version 8.5 for January 14, 2013, which contains an innovative and proprietary Central Business Intelligence (CBI) feature within the software. CollaborateMD's innovative CBI feature, uncommon in most medical office software solutions, provides users with the ability to easily create custom reports to better manage their daily operations, work less, and get paid fast. Typically, medical practice and medical billing services are required to purchase or use a separate reporting engine to create their own comprehensive reports.

The CBI feature allows full customization and creation of reports by users and is a step above what most cloud based medical billing software programs provide for reporting. Before CBI, users were limited on customizing reports and only at run-time. With version 8.5's elegant customization and valuable creation of reports, users now have access to the information they need right at their fingertips.

"Allowing users to create and modify their own reports provides individual customization for each user, without sacrificing the needs and wants of other users," stated Douglas Kegler, CEO and Founder of CollaborateMD.

The CBI Report Builder allows users to copy any of the current 100 report templates or create new reports from scratch. The Report Builder has the ease of drag-and-drop fields, filters, grouping, and charting. It provides the user with the capability to modify report templates on their own, allowing them to visualize, analyze, and report on their data in minutes. Even non-technical users can become experts in building reports to visualize the data to meet their needs.

"Numerous users tested the new CBI feature and feedback was overwhelmingly positive," stated Darrell Turner, President of CollaborateMD. "Users were impressed with the built in intelligence and were excited they could customize and create reports on their own, without having to contact us to create custom reports for them." Mr. Turner went on to add that "Our goal is to provide everyone who uses CMD a memorable user experience."

Extra features include the sharing of report templates with other users within the account, expandable/collapsible report grouping, exporting reports, and hyperlinks to open patients or claims directly from the report. Additional exciting enhancements to the CBI are scheduled for later 2013 and will provide valuable office optimization and further improve the user experience.
